  1. That's our goal. We have no family here so we have to see if we can find someone to come be a "babysitter" if not the we will have to go separate.Based on my experience, my recommendation would be for ya'll to have it done at least a month apart; unless you have some really good supportive help staying at your house while both of you recover. I was pretty much bed ridden for the first 4 weeks and depended solely on my 17 year old son and my husband.
  2. I had SIPS surgery on 3/25/15 in Durham with Dr Bovard of NC Bariatric Specialist. I live in Creedmoor.
  3. Keep an eye out for a new SIPS/SADI forum! I contacted the admin and he said he would start one specifically for us.

  11. I had SIPS on 3/25 in North Carolina. These doctors do NOT use a drain tube! They stitch and glue you up completely and I've not heard of any issues. I healed up nicely. I can't imagine coming home with the drain tube, as it must a nuisance.
  12. I had SIPS on 3/25. Are there any SIPS specific forums?

  14. Is there a forum just for SIPS?
  15. I'm on the preop liquids now. My surgery is in 5 days. I purchased different RAMEN flavors and fed the noodles to birds. At $0.10 per pkg, you can't beat the price, and many flavors to choose from.
